Hair loss can be a frustrating experience for both men and women. Fortunately, modern hair restoration techniques like NeoGraft offer hope for those seeking to regain a fuller, natural-looking head of hair. At Rivela Hair Restoration, we specialize in the NeoGraft hair transplant procedure, providing our patients with exceptional results and renewed confidence.
What is NeoGraft?
NeoGraft is an advanced hair transplant technique that uses Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technology. This minimally invasive procedure harvests individual hair follicles from the donor area and transplants them to areas of thinning or baldness.
The NeoGraft Hair Transplant Procedure
The NeoGraft hair transplant procedure is a meticulous process that typically takes between 3-8 hours, depending on the number of grafts being transplanted. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how it’s done:
1. Preparation
Before the procedure, our expert staff will prepare your scalp by cleaning it and administering local anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the process.
2. Harvesting
Using the NeoGraft device, individual hair follicles are gently extracted from the donor area, typically the back of the head. The pneumatic pressure of the device allows for precise extraction without damaging the follicles.
3. Graft Preparation
The extracted follicles are carefully sorted and prepared for transplantation. They are typically grouped into units of 1-4 hairs each.
4. Recipient Site Creation
Dr. Rivela creates tiny recipient sites in the balding or thinning areas where the grafts will be placed. This step requires artistic vision to ensure natural-looking results.
5. Graft Placement
The prepared follicular units are then carefully placed into the recipient sites. The NeoGraft technology allows for precise placement, ensuring optimal growth and a natural appearance.
Benefits of NeoGraft Hair Transplant
The NeoGraft hair transplant offers several advantages over traditional hair restoration methods:
- Minimally invasive with no linear scarring
- Quicker recovery time
- Natural-looking results
- Minimal discomfort during and after the procedure
- Ability to wear short hairstyles without visible scarring
Who is a Candidate for NeoGraft?
NeoGraft is an excellent option for many individuals experiencing hair loss. Ideal candidates for a NeoGraft hair transplant in The Woodlands typically:
- Have sufficient donor hair in the back and sides of the scalp
- Are experiencing male or female pattern baldness
- Have realistic expectations about the results
- Are in good overall health
During your consultation, Dr. Rivela will assess your individual case to determine if NeoGraft is the right solution for you.
The Road to Hair Restoration
After your NeoGraft hair transplant procedure, you can expect to see initial results within a few months. Full results typically become visible around 9-12 months post-procedure as the transplanted hair follicles settle into their new growth cycles.
At Rivela Hair Restoration, we’re committed to providing exceptional care throughout your hair restoration journey. Our team will guide you through the recovery process and provide all necessary aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results.
